Phelps vs. Thorpedo

Phelps is REDiclulously good. He absolutely murured the field in the 200 Free yesterday and lowered his own world record. This with Ian Thorpe in the stands watching. Thorpe was quoted as saything that he doubts Phelps' ability to even match Spitz's 7 golds, much less pass him. We'll c about that Mr. Thorpe. If you want to talk shit, come out of retirement so you can get "smashed" just like the dirty French.

Already tied for the most golf medals of all time, Phelps is 3 for 3 this year with his toughest race, the 4 X 100 free relay, (in terms of winning the gold) out of the way. He is favored in all of his remaining races. The only questionable race might be the 100 butterfly, where fellow American Ian Crocker could present some competition, but I don't see it happening for Crocker. This seems to be history in the making here and we are all privlileged to witness it.
